Lalu Prasad Yadav’s daughter Rohini Acharya has strongly dismissed speculation about her possible nomination as a Member of the Legislative Council (MLC) from the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), calling such reports baseless and politically motivated.
Bihar's new chief minister invoked three decades of political rivalry - jails, alliances and broken loyalties - to explain why Lalu Yadav deserves credit for putting him in power.

Addressing party workers on the occasion of Jananayak Karpoori Thakur’s death anniversary in Patna, the Leader of the Opposition in the Bihar Assembly asserted the resilience of the RJD, outlined a roadmap for the party’s future political course, and reiterated his commitment to upholding Karpoori Thakur’s principles.
The felicitation ceremony marked the leadership transition within the party.
However, he cautioned the people of Bihar, saying that even by mistake, if they press a button other than the Lotus or Arrow symbols (the election symbols of the BJP and JD(U), Jungle Raj would return to Bihar in a new form.
The entire Phulwari area was flooded with red, green, and Congress flags.
During the roadshow, Divya Gautam, the INDIA Alliance candidate from Digha, was also present alongside Lalu Yadav.
Warning the people of Bihar, they said that Lalu-Rabri’s 'jungle raj' has returned to Bihar’s doorstep in a new name and new clothes. One mistake could push Bihar back by 20 years.
Amid speculation that RJD leaders would hold a dialogue with Congress leader Rahul Gandhi over the seat-sharing tussle in the Mahagathbandhan ahead of the Bihar polls, Tejashwi Yadav clarified, saying, “I am here for the court hearing, not for any political purpose
